Wow!
BTW, I was referring to the "Giga-yachts" @ the bottom. 300ft+ yachts just don't make any sense to me unless its a cruise ship. If I had $10 billion I w/ never need nor have use for a private boat that big. I'm not hating, it just doesn't make sense to me.

potlatch - Literally, ‘giving’. An extravagant festival held by the Indian tribes of the northern Pacific coast, especially the Haida, the Nootka, and the Kwakiutl. The ceremonial destruction or giving away of possessions by chiefs and leading warriors establishes superiority in social or political status, or permits the assumption of inherited rights. One chief might ‘shame’ another by destroying valuable pots, killing slaves, and burning down houses. If the other chief failed either to give away or to destroy more things, then he would lose public esteem. According to legend, the first patlatch was concerned with the exchange of feathers, long regarded as sacred objects by the North American Indians.
